Every year the blogosphere has a bunch of interesting articles and end of year collections. Since I'm not going to be home tomorrow, I figured I would post a little early and list some of them.
To start off, Google has their annual end of year Zeitgeist data up, showing social trends through searches, as well as a bit on how the data was compiled.
Wired has a bunch of interesting articles, like their annual Vaporware roundup and their "Foot-in-Mouth" awards, also very funny.
BBC has a "100 things we didn't know last year" with many things I didn't know this year.
Bad Astronomy has a Top 10 Astronomy Images of 2006 with some very nice images (thanks /.)
Reuters has a news year in review section with most read articles, best pictures, etc.
JibJab has one of their excellent flash clips reviewing 2006 (politically).
A new version of Knoppix (the excellent Linux LiveCD/DVD) has just been released. Among other improvements, it now contains beryl a nifty 3D compositing window manager. Fun to play with for those of you with decent 3D accelerators (just about everyone now). Torrents available on the Knoppix Tracker.
Mashable has a social networking awards (ie myspace, etc) (via Qwerky)
Digital Photography School has updated their How To Photography Fireworks article in preparation for any New Year's festivities
The Google Earth blog has a round up of 10 GE animations for those of you with a recent GE4 beta. They also have a listing of GE Games (see their next post for more on "Mars Sucks")
If anything exciting happens in the next couple days I'll try to add it, but for now Happy Surfing (oh, and Happy New Year ;-)
